Composite sensor
First Claim
1. A composite sensor comprising;
- an angular velocity sensor element;
an acceleration sensor element;
a signal processing IC for processing signals from the angular velocity sensor element and the acceleration sensor element;
an inner package for accommodating the angular velocity sensor element, the acceleration sensor element, and the signal processing IC;
a coupler connected to the inner package, the coupler being elastically deformable; and

Abstract
A composite sensor includes an angular velocity sensor element, an acceleration sensor element, a signal processing IC for processing signals from the angular velocity sensor element and the acceleration sensor element, an inner package for accommodating the angular velocity sensor element, the acceleration sensor element, and the signal processing IC; a coupler connected to this inner package, and a fixing member connected to this coupler for holding the inner package via this coupler. The coupler is elastically deformable. One of the acceleration sensor element and the signal processing IC is located at the right with respect to the center of the inner package, and the other of the acceleration sensor element and the signal processing IC is located at the left with respect to the center of the inner package. The composite sensor angular maintains its characteristics of the angular velocity sensor element while the angular velocity sensor element and the acceleration sensor element are accommodated in one package.
